When one person in the room thinks you’re a jerk you can probably dismiss it but when the whole room thinks so you might want to pay attention.

WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON
Jesus conversion rate was probably around 50%. We’re lucky if we can get 10!
If they treated Jesus the way they did what can the rest of us expect? Well I guess it depends on what side of humanity you’re on! Jesus was on the side of good and right and that didn’t go over so well with about half the people.
There’s an old saying, “If you have to explain 3xplain what you’re to them then you’re going about it all wrong to begin with.”
A SMORGASBORD?
Alot of people treat AA like a smorgasbord. “I’ll work the steps I want. I’ll accept the people I want!
…if you try to work the program in areas you don’t want to, God will always appreciate it. If you choose simply to do only those things agreeable to you -you’re putting your sobriety in your own hands!
if you think AA, in many ways, is all that different from the world out there… Everything human is drawn from the same human pool (that God created).
THE RUMOR MILL
Not nearly enough people once made privy to a rumor stop to question the validity of the story.
On rumors regarding yours truly, “If you didn’t get my side of the story (or others subject to…) then it never happened -it’s simply untrue!
People tend to veer on the side of caution -often too much! These people, along with hoarders, appear to be lacking in Faith.
UNDER PRESSURE
Alcoholics, and human beings in general do not do well under long term pain or duress.

WASH, RINSE, REPEAT
In order for certain people to operate in the world… rather, in order for people to operate in a certain manner, they feel they must maintain certain outlook, attitudes, and beliefs…. People in certain positions were holding certain positions must guard themselves in order to withstand the constant barrage of…tis tact(ic) is often an affront to one’s own humanity and God’s teaching.*
*Certain jobs and certain situations, human beings were never intended to face, or endure for long periods (repeatedly/indefinitely).
WHAT(‘S) NEXT?
There were concerned about the government listening to us on our phones -of course we know that to be true now. So people started pulling the batteries out of their phones. So then they started coming out with phones with batteries that couldn’t be removed 🤔
Do you remember the commercial about 10 years ago about the woman cleaning in her living room and seeing herself on her TV? There was a camera put into the T v’s T v’s without people knowing it -or they weren’t supposed to know it. Somebody in the industry probably said screw this! Anyways, after a couple of those bloopers 😄 that commercial was never to be seen or heard from again. They’re hoping it will be long forgotten by the general public -ensuing generations. Of course by now it may be public information and the government may have found other means we are unaware of to…*
The public is only made privy to information to the degree that the powers that be are able to maintain a comfortable advantage with their own information. Apparently calm of the government felt comfortable with releasing information on how to build an atomic bomb for whatever reason… but they refused to release any information on gravity written by Nikolai Tesla 🤔
GENTLE AS A LAMB 🐑
You take away fear, ego, and to a lesser degree of importance, misinterpretation, And human beings are pretty docile, decent creatures.*
- 🤔 I wish to add, which is more important: to relieve man of his fear and ego; or to relieve man of his pension for misinterpretation?
Some people apparently, feel the need to first learn how to stand up to people (feel a sense of empowerment -children form this way) before they can learn to become humble in their presence.
